About this listen
Welcome to WRR 230 for January 12-25. Before we jump into the news, we want to acknowledge the ongoing tragedy in Minneapolis. The recent fatal shootings of U.S. citizens by federal agents are unacceptable, and we stand with the community in calling for an end to this state-sanctioned violence against its own people.
In rugby news, South Africa made history by clinching the inaugural HSBC SVNS 3 title in Dubai, meaning they qualify for the upcoming SVNS 2 Series alongside runners-up Argentina, while Fijiana successfully defended their crown at the McDonald's Fiji Coral Coast 7s. In the 15s game, Gwalia Lightning surged to the top of the Celtic Challenge, and we honor the legendary career of referee Sara Cox following her retirement announcement. On the domestic front, the stage is set for an all-Kanto final in the All Japan Championship, while Uganda has locked in its 2026 Premiership dates and Italy’s Serie A Elite sees a new leader at the summit.
